Science fiction orchestral piece

An orchestral piece inspired by a science fiction story I wrote some time ago about two astronauts who discover animals made of exotic matter on an unknown planet.

I hope you like it. 
 

Hey @Víctor Parra Avellaneda,

Welcome to the forum yo!
 

I find the timbre and harmony of the beginning really interesting, so even it’s minimalistic I don’t find it boring at all, especially you add instruments in each cycle and change the timbre! Like in around 1:58 it’s lighter with pizzicato strings. in 2:40 there is first real change of harmony and I find it real fresh that you introduce some pentatonic in D here with the flutes and oboes!  Dry nice orchestral colour here. You slow down the pace at the end which is very smart. Ending it in F sharp aeolian gives a bare and sad feeling for the exploration. I really enjoy this one. Thx for joining and sharing your music here Victor!

Hi @Víctor Parra Avellaneda ! This is really cool and impressive - even more so when the source of inspiration is another creation of yours !

Beautiful music victor !! really nice orchestration.

the organ with strings remind me duruflé requiem.

love the minimalist approach and changing between intruments and dynamics, it help to not loose attention to the piece.

i wrote something with a looklike vibe years ago  inspired by maurice duruflé

yup, with the one more futuristically-inspiring, and yours more religiously devoted. Both also have that sense of ( really large ) scale.
